Andy Biersack and More Talk When They Discovered Metallica

Andy Biersack of Black Veil Brides

Andy Biersack: When I was a very young kid, I had a neighbor named Kenny. He always had Metallica VHS. He'd bring over A Year and a Half in the Life of Metallica and other concert stuff. He brought over a VHS tape of the time right when Jason Newsted joined the band, and I was blown away. Pre-Black Album Metallica is some of the best metal that's ever been made. I still love The Black Album though. Metallica is Metallica; you can't go wrong there. In terms of really solid, intricate, and classical-sounding metal, we're definitely influenced hugely. That especially holds true for our guitar player Jinxx and the way we write bridges using that Bach-like influence. For what it's worth, James Hetfield is a fantastic metal singer. He created that gravelly metal voice that we all love.
